Pegasus The Worst Map in Halo History?

Just saying, it’s up there for me. I cannot think of any other map I despise so much in Halo’s 15 year history

Amen!!

visually ugly and bland…
starting spawns are unfair…
game ends up being “let’s camp at red corner with rockets” 90% of the time…

Not the most hated for me, but definitely would veto it if we could pre-game.

One of my favorite maps actually.

Riptide is the worse

What if I told you that there’s actually nothing wrong with Pegasus? Like, nothing physically wrong?

But it’s actually an honest to god 2v2 map constantly being forced to handle 8 or perhaps even 10 players?

What if I told you it was named after a Greek mythological horse? Now we both have fun facts. :wink:

The spawns are a bit off but other than that its not to bad!

That strategy only works if you play into it. Funny how if the other team doesn’t fall for the red corner camp approach and stays away from it altogether, the other team has to come out and fight.

Again, each map and game type has certain strategies and counters that you have to figure out to win in them.

I’m not great at the map but this strategy works in Silver and Gold levels anyway.
I used to get torn to shreds on Pegasus until I thought why am I running to certain death.
Having said that it only works if your team mates also hold back otherwise the other team is happy to just camp with rockets.
Also I have played some 1V1 practise matches and 2V2 Arena would be perfect if it was available.

You’re spelling ‘Orion’ wrong.

yes and orion was terrible too

You sure about that?

Yah im not a big fan of this one either. Im sure if there was a veto system in place this map here would rank as one of the most vetoed. But just by looking at the map it doesn’t really fit in with the rest of the maps. Theres not much too it.

Yes this map is YOINK

Like most maps in this game that people call “bad”, whats bad about them isnt the map itself, but the weapon placements and spawn system in those maps. Pegasus has issues with the types of power weapons located on the maps, and the fact that teams can camp top red and spawn kill the other team without forcing them to spawn anywhere else. On top of that, having both rockets and sniper on the map is just overkill. The map plays a lot smaller than it is, and would benefit from maybe having both rockets and sniper removed, and replaced with something like a single railgun, or only having rockets with no sniper on the map. I understand that 343 is trying to put more power weapons on some of these maps to encourage movement and to throw the team that is down a way to get back into the game, but what ends up happening is one team grabs control of both then just spawn camps the other team. Less is more in my opinion.

The worst map to play on is Foundation with SMG starts. Makes me want to puke just thinking about it.

It’s one of the worst maps ever IMO. I can’t stand playing on it honestly. For a while, I never got the map anymore. Not sure if it was removed from the Slayer rotation for a while or something, but if it was, it needs to be removed again, this time permanently

I also don’t miss Orion at all. Here’s to hoping it doesn’t re-enter any playlist

Well yes that does happen. More often than not. But hey at least I know where to find everyone. :wink:
